Tesla's Lighting Spear
School: Evocation; Level: 5
Components: VSM (a small amber rod)
Range: Medium (100ft.+10ft./level)
Effect: Spear like rod of lightining
Duration: 1 round/level
Saving Throw: Fortitude half; Spell Resistance: Yes

You cause a spear length rod of lighting to appear that can be wielded similar to a spear. The electricity does no harm to you, but a successful touch attack allows you to prick an enemy with the spear dealing 5d6 points of electricity damage (fortitude half). In addition, you may throw the spear as a ranged touch attack and do the same damage. Another person may pick up the spear, but they receive damage each round they are in contact with it as if they had been hit with it. Enemies wearing a large amount of metal, such as metal armor, receive a -4 penalty to their armor class against the spear.

Suggestions and criticisms are welcome!
